TCL C2R Full HD projector, Digi Mart USA News: TCL has debuted the C2R, a Full HD LCD projector that runs Roku TV OS and offers access to a range of streaming services, including Netflix. According to the publisher’s report, the model is rated at 350 ISO lumens of brightness, an upgrade over the 230 lumens of last year’s C1 projector.
The projector uses TCL CSOT (China Star Optoelectronics Technology) LTPS LED display technology, a dual-thermal isolation design intended to extend the life of optical components, and a triple-glass lens design. The IPX5-rated, dust-sealed light engine projects images from 40 inches to 150 inches with a 2,000:1 contrast ratio.
A gimbal stand lets the C2R swivel 285 degrees, allowing it to project onto walls and ceilings. Auto keystone correction, auto object avoidance and auto focus are designed to produce a square projection automatically, the report states.
Sound comes from a 10-watt Dolby Audio speaker with an 85 dB maximum sound level and bass output as low as 80 Hz, according to TCL. The cooling fan is rated at under 30 dB.
External speakers or headphones can be connected through a 3.5 mm audio output or Bluetooth 5.2.
Users can stream free and subscription services, mirror smartphone screens via Apple AirPlay or Android Screen Mirroring, and play media from a USB-A flash drive. An HDMI port allows the projector to be used as an external monitor for laptops or other video sources.
The report lists the price as $239.99 at Amazon.
